Fade to within the tip Action

Is it possible to fade an object from in a tip action?  I use 'Show', but neither the ' Transition: fade in only "or the"AlphaFromTo", when applied to the object, seems to do the trick.  Other methods available?

Thank you

Sorry, there seems to be a misunderstanding. Will try to explain.

If you apply an effect to an object, the effect has a "duration". When you 'show' object and you want to see the effect applied, the playback head must be able to move to that effect. That is why I asked how you applied the Alpha effect. An effect can be applied with the 3 workflow:

  • Time-based: it is one you use, the effect won't be visible only with a Show command to all the
  • Triggered by an interactive object
  • Triggered by a command in a tip action

Look at this timeline:

The button has a 'Show Star' action without letting go of the playback head. The AlphaFromTo takes 2secs. If I put the timeline star at the beginning of the slide, when you use the command Show Star, the beginning will show in its current state, which would be with a fairly high Alpha. When you move the star timeline like I did here, the star will show but with a low coefficient Alpha, very dimmed. Perhaps this best explains why using a time-based effect makes no sense at all.

If you use the effect in the tip action, you should have out the read head as well. It is not true that you cannot go back to an 'image', I told her micro-navigation there are many versions, it's a little heavy, but it is possible: Micro-Navigation in Adobe Captivate - Captivate blog

David (TLCMediaDesign) could certainly offer a workflow JS as well for navigation between images.

Sorry, today, I find more time to provide a working solution.

  • Tip action: a conditional action does not execute the final decision

    Hello

    I'm working on a program of Captivate (7). We have a tip action that runs when entering the program or the first screen.

    The program transmits the data of Captivate to a database via Javascript to a .NET application.

    After each of us the registration form that the user saw the screen and assign it to a user variable: v_lastmod = 1, 2, etc. On the way to the next screen, it passes the data to the database via Javascript to a .NET application and .NET passes a redirect response. So it basically loads the program again. Entering the first screen where I have a display "Loading" (just a screen with loading as text), according to your v_lastmod, it climbs to a particular slide. The tip action uses "If" and "else", "if" v_lastmod = 1, jump to "4 slide 4" etc. ".

    We are able to do it for all the decisions that are in advanced actions, until we get to the lastmod = 19 (which is where we stop registration for this variable).

    So, say for example v_lastmod = 19, rather than jumping to the appropriate slide, it goes to the screen first and then stops on the second slide.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    If all goes well, this didn't seem to be confused because I am not developer but program file Captivate .NET.

  • With the help of a tip action to display a picture (or button) on each slide.

    I have a tip action that evaluates certain criteria. Advance action is called from several different slides in the presentation. Is it possible that I can get it to display a fixed image, if the criteria are met? It seems that I have to write a new, slightly different tip on each slide action to "show" the picture of each slide.

    Is it possible to share an image (or button) so that the tip action can do appear, any slide, you are on?

    I would like to know if I need to provide for additional details. Thank you!

    Technically your advanced actions are allowed to show or hide the images on the slide where they are actually executed.  If an advanced running on slide 3, for example, action will not be able to display or hide an image on slide 5.

    However, what you can do is to place the image on one of the slides earlier in the project and then assign timed for the rest of the project.  This allows you to SHOW or HIDE the image of any slide later in the project where your advanced Action is executed.

  • Need help to understand why "1 is always equal to 1" is required in my tip Action

    I use 7 Captivate and publishing as a SWF file.

    I have an interaction that works, but there's a script I use (that I found in a tutorial) that I do not understand the purpose of.

    The interaction is contained on a single slide where a user clicks on two buttons in order any and a chart is displayed after the second click. Each button, I advanced conditional Action where I first check that it will always be true that "1 equals 1", then assign each variable with '1', then ensure that each variable is equal to 1, after which the graphic appears.

    The part that confuses me checks if "1 is always equal to 1." Why is this necessary script in this case? Is it necessary because I'm including a tip Action Standard (assign variables to '1') within the conditional Action Advanced? Or is related to the fact that I do everything on a slide (do not use a slide event on enter a conditional Action executing advanced)?

    Thank you.

    As usual, Rick explanation is awesome! It won't be fun to add more details.

    It would have helped if you don't say what tutorial you are talking about. This could be one on my blog, where I often use a "standard action imitated" it is a decision in a conditional action. The condition, I mainly used was 'IF 1 is equal to 1'. Article 1 (over 4 years): combination Standard and conditional in a tip action was even in Captivate 5 help documentation.

    Probably, I'll write a new blog post, because of the new shared actions. It is now better is to not use this simple condition more 'If 1 is equal to 1' If you use shared in Captivate 8 actions. It would take too long to explain in depth in this forum, so my idea on a new article. This condition could function without problems "Een if equals Een. Do not laugh at the word 'Een' which is the Dutch version of the written number 1. Be careful, because Captivate is case-sensitive, that 'If Een equals een' will not work.

  • Apply several effects to an object in a tip Action / Flash output

    Hello

    Played around with the application of effects through advanced Actions. It seems that if a tip Action is put in place to apply multiple effects on the same object, only the last effect in the sequence of commands executed in the tip action (possible / far right) would play when Flash is published. This should or am I missing something here?

    Doesn't seem to be a problem when publishing to HTML5.

    It is very old, but except for the changes in the user interface, the custom effects still work the same way:

    Trajectories and custom effects reuse - Captivate blog Edition

    Three steps (even that has not changed yet):

    1. Create effects stacked as time-based effect. Look at this timeline
    2. Save the effect (there is now a disk button), remove the three effects stacked, then apply the custom effect (use the Browse button). This is necessary for your custom effect see when using the effect of applying advanced actions order
    3. Use apply effect and you will see a new category "Custom" from which you can choose the custom effect. I did not test how changes in the duration effect those stacked, sorry.
  • "Go to the slide" Action - Advanced button do not advance slides

    I have some questions, do what I think is a simplistic 'Advanced Action' branch.  I am running Adobe Captivate 8.0.1.242 on a Windows 7 computer - I hope it's an easy solution for a guru of Captivate.

    I have a menu widget drop-down, which assigns a value to a variable "DEM" - according to the results of that variable, I want to jump to a specific slide.  Currently, I have correctly inserted the menu widget drop-down and he had to assign a value to the variable.  I made a simple action that jumps to a specific slide based on MNES and changed the action of 'Success' of the button continue my slide to run the Advanced tip Action.  But when I click on the button, I hear a 'click' sound, but the slide does not advance.

    I debugged it (unsuccessfully) in two ways - I made a text box with the DEM variable to confirm that it was written in (is) I also tried to change my the tip Action to increment a variable nominal if the DEM was that I selected, who also worked - so my "if" statement is to work, it's just the 'Skip to Slide' which , for some reason, does not work.

    In addition, there is no quiz before or between the conditional action and the slide that I pass.  I tried to assign a button continue earlier as "Include in Quiz" to get the button to work - but that did not fix it it.  I also tried the alternatives people have met - tried to run in the browser vs. Overview, tried to remove the button continue the break (another button break for drag left would not anticipate).

    Cap punctured my slides/Advanced Action - very appreciate all help!

    AdvancedAction.JPGBranchingSlide.JPGDropdown.JPG

    Several reasons possible, but I do not accept more (too dangerous) debug files.

    Why did you include CAADR, the value from the interaction of the drop-down list, quotation marks? Variables and literals are case sensitive and must be accurate. I guess you did? Because Captivate will only add double quotation marks if the value is at least two words.

  • Tip action CP5 need help with conditions...

    Hello

    I created my own multiple question (MC) with 4 theeorie response which 3 are fair and 1 is wrong.

    As soon as a true/false response is checked, a tip action is performed - check mark in the box as shown and "feedback" to answer.

    In the case of a good answer - any previous response feedback is hidden, but the check box answers correct stay while evil answer checkmark is hidden.

    An example of the tip action for one of the three answers:

    Advanced action right.jpg

    This is what looks like the question until the answer to my question must be implemented:

    Question.jpg

    Now to my question:

    At the end of the responses, I would like to the user get a message: CONGRATULATIONS...

    This should appear when all 3 answers have been selected.

    After CONGRAT... message, they can then click on continue button to continue training.

    I'm curious to any suggestion on how to achieve this

    Thanks in advance for the answer.

    Best regards

    OPTION A:

    The measures to achieve the congratulations message on the same Blade (which is the issue) 1. Actions such as B_Selected, C_Selected etc must be conditional actions instead of the standard actions, that they are at the moment.

    2. four variables must be created in project-> Variables-> add new. These can be called a, b, c, d and a value of 0 (zero), which means that the option is not selected 3. In the conditional action B_selected first requirement should be something like

    If (1 corresponds to 1)

    {

    See the TC_Correct_B

    See the Image_230

    Hide Image_233

    Hide TC_Wrong_A

    Hide TC_Correct_C

    Hide TC_Correct_D

    Assign b = 1

    }

    4. in the second step of the action itself i.e. B_selected, follow these steps

    If (a is 0 & b is equal to 1 & c equals 1 & d is equal to 1)

    See the TC_Congratulations

    All actions should have these two conditions and if there are actions such as B_unselect, then 'assign b = 0' in such actions.

    OPTION B

    On the other hand, if it is showing the message of congratulations on the next slide, it will be simpler as this 1. Create four variables a, b, c, and d = 0 2. In actions such as B_Selected (no need to change to conditional action), add a statement 'assign b = 1'.

    3. in the actions such as B_unselected, add a statement 'assign b = 0'.

    4. at the exit of the slide execute advanced action, which will be a conditional action as follows:

    If (a is 0 & b is equal to 1 & c equals 1 & d is equal to 1)

    Go to the next slide

    On the other

    Jump to slide _

    5. on the next slide write the message of congratulations.

  • Tip action DOES not work in the Flash output

    Hello

    I created a module in line with Captivate 9 using an advanced conditional action to display the button at the end of 2 sections.

    The trigger works well in the release of HTML5, but it does not work in the Flash output: users need to go back to the slide with the action advanced a second time in order to show the next button.

    It is the created tip action:

    advanced_action.png

    Help, please. Thank you

    Lisa

    Change the order in the updated standard measure jump to slide as last order, or at least after the command of the increment.  The actions are executed in sequence, if you jump first to this slide, where the on enter event is executed, the variable has not yet been incremented. Try to see if it solves the problem. HTML is different from SWF to react (it is converted to JS so that SWF to ACE).

    You post the screenshot of the timeline.

    Moreover, as I have indicated already, I would add continue to the part of the TIME as well as the ELSE part. I learned that, in certain circumstances, a conditional action with that one decision, and no ELSE part does not work well. It is not a problem if you have several decisions.

  • Tip action does not follow the direction 'else '.

    Hello

    I use 8 Captivate and trying to create a tip action putting in question a matter of access point.

    Currently I have:

    If (all conditions are met):

    If cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice [is to] 0 ((literal - as generated by Captivate)

    Then:

    Run the Javascript: window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue ("cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice", "OK");

    Another thing:

    Run the Javascript: window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue ("cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice", "Invalid");

    (FWIW, I am confident in the "then" Javascript, have used this script in similar advanced conditional actions.)

    However, regardless of whether cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice is 0 (that is, correct) or appears empty (that is, incorrect), advanced action always returns the If condition (if the parameters are respected).

    I suppose one way to solve this would be to understand what is generated by Captivate for cpQuizInfoAnswer when the question is incorrect, but can't seem to find. Another way would be to create an advanced conditional action based on the question if the question has been marked as Correct or Incorrect, but this doesn't seem to be an easy option.

    I would appreciate any suggestions on how to work around this problem!

    I haven't tried the custom hotspots, but will be for future projects - it's more trouble than it was worth.

    I end up creating multiple points of access, with the first (= 0) being a "dummy" and the second (= 1) being the right answer. Then, I created my conditional Action advanced to return "Incorrect" If the answer is 0 or null (because the system identifies equivalents) and "correct" If the answer is 1.

    Thanks for all your help in this, Lilybiri!

  • Hide various objects on different slides with the same tip Action

    I'm quite new to Captivate and because of that I'm fighting for the search feature, I need. I have a project of say 40 slides. On each slide, I have a button field on the left side guide and when clicked I have a window scroll from left to right, in the main frame of the window.

    Also on each slide is an object that displays specific information (usually in the form of text) with the previous buttons and following attached to it (its actually just a PNG image with the buttons "Previous" and "Next" with click boxes on them).

    The problem I have is when I click on the field guide that I want to hide this information object. I can easily do this in a tip for 1 slide action but when I want to the same tip action allows to always hide the information object of the current slide that I meet problems. If I was able to name objects of the same name is not a problem.

    The only "fast" solution I have is that each object information on each slide set to hide when I open the guide and then visible when I close the guide.

    Is their a better solution or does this supposed same matter?

    Thanks in advance

    Why you not time the objects for the rest of the project, always on top? In this case, you will have an ID (I recommend you even a group). BUT: This means that you cannot use boxes to click but must spend much more flexible form buttons.

  • Tip action to show only a previous button on a slide so the learner clicked on the button Submit on Drag and Drop

    I am a user of long date Captivate and have dabbled with advanced Actions and Variables, so know just enough to get me in trouble. Hoping someone can help me with what I hope is a simple tip action:

    I am currently using CP8 and created a training where learners click on a map of building to go to different "rooms" to complete an interaction drag-and - déposer a certain topic related HR. The problem is that some of my learners test forget what 'rooms' they have already read and will click on those they have already visited. I added a back button, so that they can return to the map if they made a mistake, but now they are able to leave the slide without completing the interaction drag and drop.

    Basically, I need to hide the back button unless the learner has already completed (for example, the user clicks on the button submit to) the Drag and Drop interaction, but I'm not sure how to set up. Can anyone help?

    Thank you!

    Hide the button back to begin with. A tip action can be triggered by an event the success and failure of the & slipped. I guess that you will need at least two commands:

    • View the "back" button
    • Go to the next slide.

    It seems the simplest solution. You can also ignore the slide D & D when they enter a second time, but then you will need a Boolean variable to be turned on/off by these same events and a conditional action on which checks this variable and immediately jumps to the next slide when it is set to 1.

  • Need help creating tip Action for Navigation "Inside-the-same-slide" to let the user Play slide again

    I use 8 Captivate. It is a scenario of HTML5.

    I have need of a button which will allow the user to "replay" the slide. I don't want the button to take the user to the front, back, or do anything else. I want the button to start the slide at the beginning and play without interruption until the end.

    I am looking for help on how to do this using variables and advanced for HTML5 actions or, Alternatively, recommendations on the good tutorials for advanced actions. I prefer the tutorials that will allow me to start at the bottom. I was not able to find tutorials advanced action that assume no prior experience.

    I know that each new user must say this, and I'm afraid that's true for me too. If I can't create a HTML5 work quickly replay button, it will get me in trouble with the client.

    Try this:

    cpCmndGotoSlide is a system variable, which the index starts at 0. The variable cpInfoCurrentSlide system includes an index starting at 1. The reason for the subtraction in this Expression. You need to add continue because a tip action will not release the read head.

  • Captivate adds 'continue' to tip Action when the form is removed

    Hello

    I discovered a 'feature' particularly embarrassing to Captivate, which can be demonstrated as follows.

    1. Add a smart shape to a slide, and name it TestShape.
    2. Create a new tip Action and call the TestAction (in this example to use Action Standard, but the behavior occurs also for conditional Action)
    3. Add action (step) see-> TestShape.
    4. Record peak Action.
    5. In the slide, delete TestShape. In other words, the first action (step) TestAction is more can be performed.
    6. Open the Advanced Action and watch Action of Test.
    7. You will see, that Captivate added continue as an action (step), instead of the broken action.

    This has caused problems for me in complex actions. I did the design, including changes (for example deleting messages I no longer want to show/hide forms), and do not realize that this caused additional to continue actions in my Advanced Actions. It manifests in 'jump' behavior where I expect the slide to be paused.

    To remedy this, I now need to review all my Actions advances before publishing, to do that there is no step to keep unwanted included.

    Everyone knows this? Advice / tips on how to avoid this problem?

    Thank you

    Sarah.

    Sarah, who has always been the case. I've already filed an application so that the continue replaced in this case with a clear warning. But no response yet.
